I am sorry, this is not an answer, but a related question about
generating pdf files containing Japanese characters on a Linux platform.
On Windows I use the configuration file to point to MSMincho.ttf, and
specify MSMincho as the font-family in the xsl. This generates a pdf
file with embedded MSMincho font, so that Japanese characters are
displayed correctly.
Which font can be used on Linux for displaying Japanese characters?
Thank you,
